Kathua the northlines 6 OPINION Jammu | Wednesday | Oct 05 | 2016 Indus Water Treaty and China Bogey the northlines Brig Anil Gupta Wednesday | Oct 05 | 2016 ver since the Uri misadventure carried out by Pak sponsored terrorists, India Ehas put in cold storage the policy of China is another hurdle "strategic restraint" and declared an all-out offensive against Pakistani deep state encompassing the political, diplomatic and economic offensives. In the words of for Modi Government Shekhar Gupta, "a new history takes shape now." India has also displayed its resolve to use the military option by he low rung Chinese response on the Surgical carrying out punitive surgical strikes against the terrorist Strikes conducted by India in PoJK had left launch pads across the LOC. India has also exposed the many pondering. However, the two recent bluff of nuclear black mail of Pakistan. Pakistan has not T only been exposed globally as an epi-centre of terror but moves of China showed otherwise. The passivity in Chinese response concerning the also projected as an irresponsible nation, a "rogue state." It punitive strike by India following horrific Uri terror has been isolated beyond redemption and is on the verge of being declared a "terror state" thus leading to its global attack in which Pakistani terrorists gunned and economic isolation. As it is Pakistan is a cash-starved nation burnt 18 Indian soldiers, the Chinese blockage of the with its GDP bordering around 2.5% and largely dependent Xiabuqu, one of the tributaries of the Tsangpo, and on the doles it receives from US and other countries its revived veto against India’s appeal to the United ironically for fighting against terror. India, therefore, has Nations to label Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed many options of causing grave damage to Pakistan other chief Masood Azhar a terrorist only portrays the than the ultimate military option. The review of Indus Water understand the importance of Indus waters and their when India has renewed the focus on IWT. It is important to evil designs of notorious China. Treaty (IWT) is one such option but many politicians and concern for Kashmir and Kashmiris is only theatrics. Their get a few facts clear to put the apprehensions to rest. Firstly, The blocking of the Tsangpo tributary could well be analysts in India are raising the China bogey to deter India. interest lies purely and solely in controlling the Indus the proposed dam on Yarlung-Tsangpo is not new but an old a precursor to Beijing’s reported plan to divert the But the optimists are of a contrary view and feel that China Waters. More than 70% of water used for irrigation of project and it is run of the river project meaning flow of the Tsangpo from its upper reaches by building a dam. is unlikely to retaliate by stopping flow of Indus/Sutlej if cultivable lands in Pakistan which produce 90% food grains water cannot be stopped. Secondly, this is not the only The Tsangpo joins the Lohit and Dibang rivers to India decides to tighten the Indus tap that would result in a and contribute 1/4th to its national GDP, flows into Pakistan project on this river, there are five other projects also become the Brahmaputra. As river Brahmaputra is famine like situation in Pakistan. from J&K. More than 60% of foreign exchange earnings of underway which are also run of the river projects. Thirdly the lifeline of northeast India, the life and A lot has been written and discussed in the media about Pakistan are attributable to the Indus basin agriculture. Why and the most important, about 67% catchment area of environment in the region will be adversely affected IWT. One truth is non-negotiable and that is the treaty is it is that mere mention of IWT sends shivers across the Brahmaputra that contributes to its waters is in the Indian if the Tsangpo is dammed. very unfair and unjust to the people of J&K. India read J&K border and their leadership starts terming it as an 'act of Territory. Fourthly, not only Tsangpo but other major rivers Likewise, Beijing’s move to extend the “technical is allowed to use only 20% of the western tributaries of war'? India is in a position to create famine like conditions like Lohit, Subhansiri, Siyom and hundreds of other small hold” imposed in April on declaring Masood Azhar Indus namely Jhelum and Chenab that flow through the in Pakistan if she decides to regulate the water of these tributaries merge into Brahmaputra, immediately after a terrorist marks a setback to India’s efforts to state into Pakistan. Pakistan has been granted exclusive use rivers in her own territory, i.e., J&K. Apart from agriculture entering India in Arunachal Pradesh. India has satellite combat Pakistan-sponsored terror. Azhar is an rights of these rivers and Pakistan's economy and livelihood it would also have an adverse effect on the domestic water imagery of all these barrages. The ultimate fact is that even accused in the Pathankot Indian Air Force base of its vast majority of population is dependent on the water supply in Pakistan. With empty granaries, no water and if China wants it cannot divert water from these rivers to attack in January as also in some other terror of these rivers. The use of water in J&K is restricted to non- failed economy the deep state of Pakistan will be forced to main land China because there are too many mountain come on its knees. To complicate the matters further incidents in the past in which he was a mastermind. consumptive domestic use. Restrictive conditions have been ranges in between and cannot be passed through. China's Pakistan's fresh water resources are declining rapidly. When India initiated the move to ban Azhar last laid down for construction of hydro-electric projects, effort at channelizing these waters northwards by Therefore, Pakistan is almost totally dependent on the Indus April at the UN, 14 out of 15 countries were willing generation of electricity and navigation. J&K is a power constructing U-bend barrages also did not meet success. water flowing from India, a major strategic vulnerability. to designate him as such but China, with its veto deficit state despite huge hydro-electric potential as well as So, China can do very little or nothing in retaliation and India is thus in a position to cause a major catastrophe in powers had blocked the move. That it has done so lacks adequate drinking water. The irrigation facilities are India need not worry in case she wants to tighten the Indus Pakistan, without use of force, by squeezing Indus river again is an index of how little it cares about Indian also minimal and inadequate. Why should the people of tap against Pakistan. India should go ahead and review the waters. Even 'maximising exploitation' of our own share of susceptibilities and world public opinion which is J&K suffer due to faulty provisions in the IWT? The treaty to undo the injustice done by the treaty to the people water can create unbearable problems for Pakistan. The increasingly coming round to the Indian standpoint preamble of the treaty states that both nations want to limit of Jammu & Kashmir.

This is despite the fact that China is years, have got their geography wrong- Kashmir is not her to caution India to go slow. The newspaper headlines announce, "Brahmaputra tributary blocked by China for facing Islamic terror in its own backyard and should jugular vein, the Indus surely is." Pandit is partly right (The author is a Jammu based political commentator, know where the shoe pinches.
